The Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Oleksandr Syrskyi, wrote a letter to Defence Minister Rustem Umierov, suggesting that the demobilisation provisions be considered separately from the government’s law on mobilization.

The editorial staff has a letter from Oleksandr Syrskyi to Rustem Umierov, in which he emphasizes the need for urgent legislative changes to improve the issues of military service and mobilization and proposes to consider this provision in a separate draft law.
"At the same time, certain provisions of the draft law, given the significant number of People`s Deputies amendments, require more detailed analysis and additional study. Taking into account the above, it is proposed to regulate the issue of grounds for dismissal from military service, as well as the introduction of rotation of servicemen at the legislative level, separately by considering it in another draft law," the Commander-in-Chief's letter reads.
Umierov agreed with Syrskyi's proposal and sent a letter to the Cabinet of Ministers.
